Maple's Faded Mobs

👻 A haunting new look for familiar Minecraft mobs 🕸️

Something has taken the life from Minecraft's familiar creatures.

A quiet kind of horror, where the unsettling part isn't what you see, but what is no longer there.

~ A submission to the SpookyJam 2026 ~

🕷️-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------🕸️

All default mobs change automatically to these faded textures around All Hallows' Eve! 
🎃  1-10 / 13-11  🎃

🌱 The Sapling mod needs to be installed in order for this mod to work 🌱

⚙️This mod needs to be installed on both the client and the server so you can see the same textures as your friends 🤗

The faded mobs spawn all across the world

and stay in their own skin when re-opening a world.

They replace all regular mobs but are compatible with other textures and won't override them
      

‼️🏷️If you want to keep a certain faded texture on a specific mob for the whole year

make sure to give them a name tag before the spooky season ends!

Otherwise, they will change. ‼️🏷️

If you want the faded textures all year round, you can change that with commands
(or in the config)

/maplemods category faded setDate 01-01 31-12

Commands
⚙️To customize your experience.

The commands need operator rights (or cheats turned on in singleplayer). Dates are day-month, like 01-12.
